When future palaeontologists dig up our remains, they will reach the conclusion that the Scots were a separate subspecies solely on the evidence of the massively enlarged facial bones serving to anchor the enormous muscles required to chew the horrifying stuff. I am unanimous on this.

What day/time are you getting in anyway? Afternoons will be spent lurking at the Red Lion, evenings at the Purbeck, and then off into the heady, seething metropolis that is SWANAGE

Marko's experience last time was trainworks, roadworks, don't works, so is not applicable now. His research indicates a bus from Borneo to Swanage, but the trip takes an IceAge, so the logical way is the bus from Hurn to the town centre, train to Wareham, and then the bus again for the short run in. If you detrain at Wareham and there's another muso or 2, a taxi might be affordable too.

You are flapping wings into Hurn, if your flight is earlier than late p.m. I will be passing the area about 12:00-1:00 at around 60mph. Is it worth sticking a hook out of the window as we go by if we can find a pickup point?

Aye, afore Carling in the 60's lager was a ladeez drink and was avoided by real men, but Mr Carling got football sponsorship and it became the lads drink. Probably the greatest marketing strategy in the Western World after bottled water( that's the see through non alcholic beer they in non bodegradable MC Teef).Curry is the necessary antidode to Carling lager , I have managed to avoid poisoning at the end of a Sat night by using curry to cure m'sel.

But I often think lager is the transistor amp to beer's valve amp. Cider is all together another thing as Maxx England will tell you

ROTFL....cider....? that'll be Old English then...?

Old English is the shabby commercial tip of the cider iceberg. The Red Lion stocks Weston's on draught and bottled. I look forward with a song in my heart to reacquainting myself with Bound's Brand and Old Rosie. Bound's is light, dry, fine like a wine, Old Rosie is, for want any better simile, a polychromatic and kaleidoscopic firework display in the way the flavours unfurl, in comparison to the black and white stickman drawing of cheap braindeath ciders from the offie. Happy, happy, happy

The room, I don't know if they've let it yet. If it's a single, I think it's £27:50 b&b.
